view of this negligence of the defendants
attorneys he thought their proposition a
most remarkable one, TO ask for a contlnu-
ance because of the absence of Dubose from
Macon to-day Capt. Rutherford stat al
that at the time of the confession of DuDose
he was not connected with the case and his
association began several weeks afterward.
Therefore the criticism of the Solicitor zen
eral could not apply to him.
Mr. Walker defended himself against all
negligence and said that he had been thor
oughly diligent in the entire matter, and
had done his full duty so far as the law
allowed.
After patiently listening to all the argu-
meuts pro and con Judge Gustn postponed
the hearing of the case until the first Mon
day in December, and said that ii was per
emptorily set for trial on that day. The
defense was thus brought to a discl osure of
their line of proceeding, which was in
tended to have been delayed until the trial.
1t proved a sensation, but it is thought that
the confession of Dubose, even II appre-
hended, cannot save the prisoner
VOOLFOLK UNMovED.
The postponement of the case seemed to
have no effect whatever on Voolfolk. Not
the slightest change of color or expression
was noticeable in his face. He received it
apparently with absolute indifference.
When Voolfolk returned to Macon from
the Atlanta Jail his valise was brought back
with him, and has been i'll the charge of
Jailer Birdsong ever since. This morning
before going to the court house he asked
Jailer Rirdsong for his valise. Before
giving it to him Mr.. Birdsong made
an examination of it and found therein a
strongly made rope twisted out of pieces Of
carpet. There were two pieces of the rope,
and when tied together they would measure
about fifteen feet in length. No doubt
Voolfolk intention was to use the rope IN
aiding him to escape from prison, should
the chance ever offer. Jailer Birdsong
thinks Voolfolk made the rope while in the
Atlanta Jail Jalier Birdsong now has the
rope, and it will never do Voolfolk any
good. The only other contents of the valise
was a quantity of soiled linen.

A Peep at HelPs Half Acre.

Yellowstone Letter TO Baltimore american
We were now in he region of wonders.
for when we looked about in the cool morn
ing air, not yet warmed by the bright rays
Of the sun, the Who'll country seemed to be
sending up columns of steam from hundreds
OF warm springs Our driver forewalned
us that the air was too cool to see the Half
Acre at its best, for the steam was so dense
as to hide the pool from view. After short
drive we came to the white and barren
formation that surrounded half-dozen
or more enormous boiling springs. A few
dead trees here and there We're evidence
that the formation of geyserite had been
growing outward from year to year, and
had finally caught up with and Destroyed
these stragglers from the forest. A walk Of
hundred yards or so brought US to the
brink of the first of these boinng lakes. The
steam, as our driver had predicted, was so
dense that we could see very little; but
will describe it as we saw it day or two
later on our return from Upper Geyser
Basin. The Half Acre is the name applied
to one of the boiling lakes, whose waters
like great caldron, are ever boiling and
bubbling, and giving off dense volumes of
steam. In its middle, a column of 10 feet
in diameter is thrown into the air to a
height of Is feet at short intervals, and
about its sides, from time to time since the
discovery of the park, pieces of the forma-
ton, which here appears 10 be about eight
feet in thickness, have tumbled in. 1t would
be impossible to ascertain the depth of this
natural cauldron, but the water is as clear
as crystal, and when the vision is not OBJ
scured by the steam, one can look down
in its blue depths and see the rocks far, far
below. On one side a stream as large as an
ordinary country mill race flows out and
rolls, boiling cascade, into the Fire Hole
river. Some of the most wonderful effects
of color are produced by the sun shining
through these clouds of steam upon the
Tinted sulphur formations in the bottoms of
these lakes

An Electric Storm il Maryland.
Feomt the BaItimore Anlertcan

A very singular phenomenon was observed
yesterday in Westminster, Carroll county
About O'Clock in the morning a thick We low
cloud settled down over the town, before the
rain and about quartz 10 an electric cloud
burst followed by a terrific report and bolt Of
lightning. Electricity played over the roofs
and steeples of the town, and. in the gloom of
the morning, gave vivid light that seemed to
last full minute The ground seemed to shake
and dwellings appeared to rock as they did dur
ing the last earthquake. Attorney Ge er u
Roberts was Weakened out of his sleep by the
loud report, and saw the electric current play
ing over the furniture in his room. His children
ran from their chamber into his room, terrified
with fear. The lightning played havoc with the
telephone and telegraph wires, and the people
of the town were greatly frightened.

FIsHrNEss OF THE TALE.

This tale Of Dubose's was published at the
time he told it to the Sheriff of Cherokee
county, but no crcdence was given it, us it
was stated that he was well known to the
Atlanta police, and had habit of confess
ing TO the preparation Of all kinds of muir
ders and other criminal deeds, and it was the
belief that he had heard the story of the
Voolfolk tragedy, and made his
confession TO suit the details of
the murder Capt Rutherford
made an eloquent appeal in behalf
of his client for The continuance of the case
until the second week in January, but Judge
Gustin refused the poStponement until that
day, as there was no assurance that Dubose
would be captured then, and the postpone
ment until December would answer just as
we'll so far as the apprehension of Dubose
was concerned.
Attorney Walker also made an earnest
argument on every possible available point.
STRANGE THEY LET HIM GO.
Solicitor General Hardemau severely
criticised the action of the defense in allow
ing Dubose to be released from the Chero-
koe jail and the Atlanta police barracks,

closures. which, if true, would be OF meal

detain Duboee and have him at the trial In

Home Lie Of Modern Perslans.

The home life of the modern Persian is
not as dull and devoid of intellectual
pleasures as the low state Of education and
of general knowledge would lead n to
suppose. The Persian enjoys the society
of his womsnkind Of every species, and
while he undoubtedly is their tyrant and
bondmaster, he is on the whole an indulg-
ent one to his wives seeghays Temporary
wiyes), and slaves. They play on
the Persian lutte, and dance to him, and
tell him stories Of the interminable, wildly
imaginative kind in true Seheherezade
style.
But what delights the average Persian
more than anything else is the reciting Of
poetry. The whole nation is fairly imbued
with poetry; il Oozes out of them on every
occasion. Even the speeeho of the common
drudge is ~impregnated with it. Thus. then,
the well to do Persian will assemble his
friends and relatives to the biroun the
mans apartments, the Turkish selamlik),
and then some clever mira Learned man
or scribe) or else IN original poet will
recite page after page from Persia's
great national ~pOets-from Frdusi and
Diellal-E ddin and Saadi, but especially
from Hafz, the great singer Of love
and wine. These ~recitatiOns will be in
terlarded with conversations about poetry,
romance, the national legendary lore, or
Oriental literature and science in general.
The ghalyan travels around necessarily
meanwhile, and servants bring in dish after
dish of sweetmeats, sherbet or tea. Wolf

gin talking bat. and after awhile the man
who works the trick will get around to the
point where ne asks you if you have ever
seen q red bat. Of course you
answer no. Then he asks you if
you would like to see a red bat. You
say that you don't mind, and he
goes back in the shop and brings forward a
paper box, carefully tied and plentifully
perforated with holes. He begins to unite
and you grow nervous and alarmed lest the
bat makes its escape. If you are foolish
enough to say Look out, or he'll fly
awayw then You get the laugh N you, for
the Joker will uncover the box aud show
you red bat sure enough-a red briekbat.

FRANCE IN PER l..

The popular excitement over the scan
dalous sale OF decorations in France hourly
increases. The case of NJ. WILSON, Pres
ident CREWS sOn-in-law, looks very
black. He must be subjected to q judicial
prosecution on grave charges Of bribery
and corruption. The position Of President
GREyY is rendered still more uncomforta-
BILE by the charge made through m OF
the Paris papers that 4 nephew OF
his is guilty of OfIenses similar to those OF
which his sou-in-law is accused.
Meantime certain indicted persons prom
inently implicated in the scandal have
undergone trial before a criminal tribunal,
two Generals of the army having been
convicted, heavily fined, sentenced to i've
years imprisonment and deprived OF all
civil and political rights. Three OF the
notorious women who were active go
betweens in the bribery transactions
Madames LMOUsIN, RATAZZf and CouR-
TEUIL) have likewise been convicted and
sentenced to fine and Imprisonment,
"And the end is not yet
President GREvY will, it IL very proba-
HE. be forced to resign. The conviction
of son-In-law WILSON and nephew LEON
would place him in a critical P~redleament.
These men are members of his household
"a well a. official attaches OF his Govern
ment, and although nobody suspects that
he has been coguizant of the s~candalous
abuses Of the opportunities OF their posi-
tons, yet it is probable that, involved in
sueh disgraceful circumstances, he would
be forced to resign his high Office, Popu-
lar opinion would demand his retirement,
and should he refuse. such is the frantic
e~xcitability vi the French people, he might
be forcibly removed.
With the old and lous-yenerated Presi-
dent IN retirement the ship Of State may
see some strange times, if not political
chaos. Already, that insane body, the
Chamber of Deputies, are loudly and ex'
citedly wrangliDg over CREWS successor.
II he be NJ. FREYCINEr, 8 Republican
statesman of recognized ability, it will b
lucky for France. If the Republic does
weather the storm, it viii not be from cool
Medicines, and the outlook il not fair.
The time would seem propitious for the
Monarchists to carry u their plans, and
aside from this danger there is BOULANGER,
the most prOmin ent and dangerous IN
France to-day, beloved by the ignorant
masses and ready TO rush to the front at
the first sign of a reyOlution-s bold and
crafty adveuturer, who evidently would
like to be another Napoleon. BoULANGEE
